Yes, this fix depends on the standard system libs. & probably only work in Stock Roms.

I dont know on wich libs depends the charge animation and if these are not found in other ROMS.

Maybe this is a Fix for Stock Roms or based on stock only.

This dependency on a system partition worries me a little. I feel that CWM should work as standalone as possible. Can the animation code be copied (or legally rewritten) into the recovery partition?

Does this new version always mount the system partition, or only mount it when attempting to display the charging animation? I suppose if it only mounts it in certain situations that isn't so bad, as at least CWM would be standalone when you needed to recover.

I wanted to test this so I recovered a nandroid backup I made under Clockwork 4., using CWM 5., and it's working perfectly, so I can confirm that you can recover your CWM 4 backups while using CWM 5. Well it worked for me anyway.

Thanks again Kra1o5. :)

I should say that for the first time since upgrading to ICS I can now turn my phone off and charge it without booting into recovery. Also I like the fact that you don't just see the title of what is being backed up/recovered but also the files, so you're never looking a screen doing nothing.

right.. i'm going to CWM5 immediately, this is really important for ordinary users! thanks

edit: confrming CWM-5.0.2.8-u8815-rev.3-update-signed.zip

powers into the stock charge mode after phone is off and you insert cable, excellent, thanks to whoever figured this out!
